<<Disclaimer: Verify this information before applying it to your situation.>> Thanks to all who responded. The general info is below. Some specific suggestions for eating as well as the standard "stick to the grilled fish & meats" suggestions. Thanks again. Donna On Hilton Head, we had good luck at Steamers. It is featured in most of the restaurant guides and is located in a popular shopping area near the middle of the island. They also have live entertainment. I had the steamed seafood platter and had no problems. Avoid the Crazy Crab. I tried to order a plain salad three times and kept getting an unacceptable imitation! I ordered the steamed seafood platter and it came breaded and broiled (breading not mentioned on the menu), and after sending it back and having it redone without breading, I still got sprued. I go to Earthfare in the S. Windermere Shopping Ctr. I think I would just call them for directions when you get here. The # in the phone book is 769-4800 or 769-0794. I live in the north area and go to Health Nuts Organic Foods and Sports Nutrition especially since my wife is on a low carb diet. (I'm the celiac) And it is located at 2110 Green Ridge Plaza Corner of Rivers and Greenridge. Ph # 764-4956. There are others listed in the phone book. As far as restaurants I eat at steakhouses a lot such as the Outback or Ryan's Steakhouse. I play it safe and usually have steak and baked potato. Ryan's has a great hotbar and is much more economical and I go to Wendy's a lot and have chili, fries and a frosty if you are in a hurry. I will also send you our newspapers web site which has a lot of tourists information. -- All I did was call ahead for reservations and explained the situation. All of these restaurants were very accomodating both management and waitstaff. Cafe Europa - Harbour Town - 843-671-3399 Truffles - Sea Pines Center - 843-671-6136 Harbourmaster's - $$$, not for small children - 843-785-3030 Great Plains Cattle Co. - 843-842-8540 CQ's Harbour Town - 843-671-2779 Did not got to, but told it was good: Old Oyster Factory - no reservations - 843-681-6040 Tony Roma's - 843-842-4825 Brian's 1301 Bistro - $$$, not for small children - 843-681-6001 Steamers Outback Told to stay away from: Crazy Crab -- When I was there we went to lots of seafood restaurants. Didn't have any trouble at any of them. I just explained my situation, and they were really willing to work with me. I made my own bread and took it with me, as well as crackers, etc. We just bought veggies and fruit from the local grocery stores. I got sprued once at Harold's Diner with an omelette, so I guess I wouldn't recommend it. Otherwise no problems. Have eaten at Hudson's, Old Oyster Factory, there is a really good restaurant there called Mi Tierra just barely on the island on the south side of the road. I had a rice/shrimp dish that cost about $15 that was absolutely delicious. Hope that helps. Sorry I don't know more. I really don't think you'll have any problems. Have fun. -- ==== "Real life isn't always going to be perfect or go our way, but the recurring acknowledgement of what is working in our lives can help us not only to survive but surmount our difficulties."- Sarah Ban Breathnach
